Why Travel Differently?

Forget the crowds and cookie-cutter itineraries. This isn’t about ticking off landmarks or chasing Instagram clichés.

It’s about meeting the people who shape this land—the winemakers, cheesemakers, and mountain guides who call these villages, valleys, and vineyards home. It’s about savoring a wood-fired raclette prepared by a local, hiking trails only the locals know, and sharing stories over wine at a family owned vineyard.

Explore a few ways to discover Switzerland differently

We’re looking for travellers, not tourists! Those with adventurous spirits who are eager to connect with culture, cuisine, and community.

  • Jen planned an amazing day for us in Lavaux wine country. She's very thoughtful in her organizing, providing many options to choose from based in type of hike desired, locations,... read more etc. She's very communicative leading up to the day, and making sure you are armed with the right directions to get to the meeting place and back to your hotel. Walking within the vineyards was such a cool experience, as well as being able to take in such beautiful views and scenery. The wineries are also very "hidden" in little villages, so I don't know how easy it'd be to find them on your own. Also, I know we went to more unique ones off the tourist trail. The wineries are family owned and its a totally different experience visiting them versus US wineries. Definitely bring a sturdy bag or backpack because the wine is so good you'll want to buy some! And like us you'll probably buy at the first winery too (or maybe all) Jen is also super knowledgeable, very interested in food and wine, learning and sharing info about the region. She really enjoys what she does! She gave us lots of recommendations for Lausanne and other parts of Switzerland, and all over the world based on our groups travel plans. We really had such a fun day and if we're back in the area will look her up again! Reach out to her if you will be in the area and like wine, Swiss wine is very unique! You won't regret it.

    Our tour of the beautiful terraced vineyards of Lavaux was everything for which we could of hoped. Jennifer put a lot of effort into finding wineries that were open... read more for tasting on the day of our tour. She gave a general overview of the wine industry in Switzerland as we walked amongst the vines between our winery stops. At each stop, we had a tasting of 3-4 wines including the popular Chasselas wines of Switzerland. Each winery shared more about the production of wine at their location. The views were spectacular, the picnic lunch overlooking the lake delicious and the wines amazing. Jennifer was punctual, quick to communicate during the booking process, adapted the day as we went and was a friendly guide. We would highly recommend this tour for those looking for an intimate and personalized tour of this amazing wine region!

    My husband and I had an amazing time on our wine tour of the Lavaux region! We started around 10am and walked to our first tasting of 3 wines. They... read more were all excellent and we enjoyed the views of the region. Then, we walked to our next stop for lunch. Jenn brought a beautiful and delicious spread for lunch: cheeses, meats, nuts, tomatoes, bread, figs, and wine. In addition, the most amazing combination of crackers, cheese, smoked trout, and pickled onions. It was a delicious combination! Then, we walked quite a bit further (thankfully mostly downhill). We stopped along the way to learn about the region, vintners, and their process using a wine cart monorail. We made one more pit stop for another tasting before walking through vineyards, by a waterfall, and then ended in the last location for a final tasting where there were lots of purchasing options. Overall, we had a great day and loved our time on the tour! Jenn was so nice and passionate about the wine, people, and history of this region!

  • My husband and I did the Wine tasting in Chardonne vineyards tour as part of our honeymoon. We had a fantastic time with Jennifer from Edible Switzerland and it was... read more such a unique experience! We went to two vineyards on this tour - Domaine Ducret and Domaine Neyroud-Fonjallaz. We are from the U.S. and the vineyard experiences are much different there - the ones in Chardonne/Lavaux are much smaller and more private - most winemaking families live on the properties where the wine is made (and many have lived there for multiple generations!). They were happy to have visitors, show us around their wine-making areas, and do wine-tastings for us, but you have to book these tours and tastings in advance, which is where Jennifer came in. I would have had no idea how to book/contact the vineyards. It was also great to have a translator, as most of the winemakers spoke some English, but not with complete fluency. Jennifer is fluent in both English and French (the main language spoken in this area). The views in Lavaux are so incredible! Even in the winter when we went (November 2023). My husband also loved this experience and the wine, and he is typically not much of a wine drinker. 10/10 overall for views, wine, and experience, and not something that would have been a feasible activity for us being from a different country without utilizing Jennifer as a planner, tour guide, and translator. Highly, highly recommend!

    My family and I had an awesome winery day trip with Jen and her colleague Dennis in the Swiss wine region of Lavaux. It was a beautiful day spent exploring... read more the region, learning about the wines and enjoying delicious tastings! Jen even went out of her way to build us a picnic with delicious and local food that was incredibly tasty for us to enjoy during the day. She was very thoughtful in organizing our tour and selected some great places for us to enjoy Swiss wine. I would 100% recommend this tour!!!

    Great wine tasting and walking tour of Laveau. Jen was excellent at arranging special tastings at three stops (we met the wine makers and leaders at each), and the... read more picnic she prepared and served was icing on the cake. (Lovely meats and cheeses and accompanying fruits and wine!). Finally, to be able to walk through the vineyards and wineries really brings home just how magical the region is. Great experience - highly recommend.
